One of the success stories at this year’s Awards was security solutions firm G4S, not only winning the accolade for Best Global/International Recruitment Strategy, but also seeing its head of resourcing Colin Minto highly commended in the Recruiter of the Year category.
One of the largest private sector employers in the world, it recruits on average 200,000 new staff a year, the judges praised G4S’s moving from a number of “disparate” recruitment processes across the business to the creation of a single global strategy, “one sleek, high-performance recruiting machine”.
“We knew we were doing a lot of groundbreaking work in terms of corporate resourcing strategy and technology adoption and implementation,” Minto told Recruiter. “But to have that recognised by such a wide and experienced group of judges is delightful.” He adds that “it’s something that we can proactively talk to our customers about”.
